NO STATE DIVISION.
Reply to Judge r.. M. Widney.

EDrroR HERALD With all our def
erence for the legal abilities OF Judge
Widney, we are reluctantly compelled
to differ from his views as to the di-
vision of California into two States.
His idea seems to be that a proper
election was held under the Act of our
State Legislature of 1859, and that
nothing remains but action on the
part OF Congress.
In 1862 the President of the United
States, having before him for his ap-
proval bill passed by both Houses of
Congress entitled can Act for the ad-
mission of the State of West Virginia
into the Union," submitted to his cab
met the following questions for their
opinion and advice thereon.
First. Is the said act constitutional ?
Second. Is the said act expedient !?
They gave an unanimous negative
to the first query, basing their con-
clusion upon section OF article OF
the United States constitution:
''New States may be admitted by
the Congress into this Union, but no
State shall be formed or created with
in the Jurisdiction of any other State,
nor any State be formed by the june
tion OF two or more States or part of
States without the consent of the leg
islatures Of the States concerned, as
well as of the Congress"
They properly agree that that while
Congress could admit new States into
the Union, it had no power to form
States. 1t has no creative power in
that respect, and cannot admit into
the Union any territory, district or
other political entity, less than State.
And such State must exist, as a sep
arate independent body polite, before
it can be admitted under that clause
of the constitution, and there is nc
other clause.
Congress has no power to maks
States.
Again, the consent required by the
Constitution is not the consent of the
State generally, nor of its Governor
nor of its judiciary, nor its constitution
but s'the consent of the Legislatures
of the States concerned"
1t was conceded that the Legislature
of Virginia (old Virginia) had con
sented, but it was denied that tn,
Legislature OF West Virginia had con
sented, or that there was in fact an.
such Legislature to give consent.
The truth is that West Virginia wa
a State government of necessity, ant
admitted into the Union under
power OF self-preservation which lie
dormant in every people, and whicl
was called into exercise by the grea
emergency Of the times.
And the Cabinet pronounced il
favor of the admission Of West Virgin
ia upon the sole ground OF war ex
pediency. They conceded that tn
proceeding was unconstitutional ant
revolutionary, but necessary, and
proper effort to prevent far create
revolution at time when the in
tegrity of the Union was strained +
its utmost tension.
To come now to the Act OF tn
Legislature OF California Of April 18th
1859.

To what lengths will the Russian
censorship of the press go next? In a
novel recently submitted to the censor,
the author, in describing the tent of
one of the Grand Dukes during the
war with Turkey, mentioned as one Of
its ornaments "thc portrait Of a GER
tain actress. This phrase WAS altered
in the proof-shcct to "a large map Of
the theatre of war. and on the author
objecting that his description was his
torical' he was coolly told that 'sin

what appears in the official journals. :

Among the Gas-wells.

A group of burning wells north OF
Washington, Pa, has presented many
grand and beautiful night-scenes.
Though many miles apart, they appear,
at distance, TO be close together, and
their light intermingles. On q dark
night, with all of them burning, they
make a great show. These wells in
full blast--with those fanking them on
the right and on the left, with the
broad glare of those ut Wellsburg. w.
Va, showing twenty miles to the north
west, and with those at Murraysville,
Pa, thirty miles To the northeast
make scene that would tcrrify a
stranger, if he should come upon it un-
aware of the existence of such things
as burning gas-wells. 1t would only
need columns of fiery lava to convince
him that the whole region was full of
volcanoes. And his terror would
doubtless be complete when he saw
great fiery column shoot skyward,
unless he was made aware of tho real
cause of the phenomenon, when he
would remain to admire what moment
before had filled him with alarm. Tho
explanation of the sudden burst of
flame is that it is necessary often to
elbow out" the wells and the pipes
leading to the regulator, to keep them
from being clogged by the salt which
gathers in the pipes from the saltwater
thrown up by the gas. The flow of
the gas is stopped for moment; and
when again released, the gas drives
everything before it into the open air.
This escaping gas is burned ut the
regulator. The effect of the suddenly
increased pressure is to shoot tongue
of flame. Kissing and roaring, high in
air. On misty night, when the light
is broken up and ditfused, the snow
covered hills sometimes adding their
reflection, the whole sky is brilliantly
illuminated, and the scene is grand and
beautiful. - Samuel w. Hat, 10 So.

WHO THEY ARE.

Who are the people the most noisy IN
denouncing the organization OF parties IN
Utah? We don't mean those who dep
recate it as a matter of policy, but VINO
are willing to argue the point In rea-
sonable manner, and if convinced OF
their error, are ready to acknowledge IT,
We mean that class, which is small but
active one, which possesses neither the
manliness nor the ability to maintain lts
position by argument, but which depends
entirely upon noisy denunciation to carry
its point. This class is not composed OF
the largest contributors to the Loyal
League, but of those who would control
it for their own selfish purposes
and who desire the greatest Pc
cuniary benefit from it. 1t is
composed of those persons, who, When
their policy is questioned, attempt to rlde
down reasoning by yelps of "Jack Nor
monism,' and charges of attempt to
divide the loyal element IN TINS
Territory. 1t is composed OF those
who led our loyal people into the
arms of Senator Edmunds, and who
defend the act of that "eminent States
man" in crushing them and their cause
under the stamps of the Conference Com
mittee mill at Washington. 1t is com
posed of those who do not desire the re-
demption of Utah except upon theii
own terms, and under no circumstances
if it will initiate to the credit OF the
political party from which they VII

UTAH Republicans harp on the Cow
ardly action" of Mr.. Cleveland in not
signing the polygamy bill. This is most
senile and gratuitous folly. The sigma
lures of all the Presidents who ever sat

the polygamy bill. Utah Republicans
had far better reflect upon the criminal
stupidity of that Republican legislation
in the National Congress which emascu-
lated the law.
